  • HT4623 I do not have a software update option under my general settings.  How do I update to ios 4.0 to get free apps???

    I do not have a software update option under my general settings.  How do I update to ios 4.0 to get free apps???

    ... and the option to update the software from the iPod using Settings/General is not available on iOS 4 or earlier.
    You can get free Apps with iOS 3.x - providing they will run on the version you have. That's dependant upon your model of iPod. So before anything else, which version of iOS do you currently have on your iPod and do you know which model you own?

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • HT4623 Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

    Why does my IPad not have a Software Updates button in my General tab?

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    To update, connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button
    Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Your iPad should be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change - though google do have app versions in the store

  • HT4623 What if you do not have a software update prompt in the general screen...how do you install iOS 5?

    I am trying to download IOS 5.1 on iPad2 but do not have a software upload prompt in the general screen.  How do I upload IOS 5.1 without this prompt?

    Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes, click on the iPad name on the left side under devices and then click on the Summary Tab in the iTunes window on the right. Click on Check for Update. After you install iOS 5 on the iPad, then you can update in the future right from the iPad in the Settings>General>Software Update.
    Make sure that you are running the latest iTunes on your computer before you update the iPad.

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to follow the second part of that article and update via your computer's iTunes.

  • Can someone please help asap! just bought fce 4 and tried uploading some footage from canon 7d and when in the time line there is audio but txt saying "unrendered" knew to programme help would be much appreciated.

    and when in the time line there is audio but txt saying "unrendered", new to this programme and any help would be much appreciated.

    Any time Final Cut Express must perform more calculations than your computer can handle in real time, you need to render. Rendering is the process of creating temporary video and audio render files for segments of your sequence that Final Cut Express cannot play in real time. When you render a segment of your sequence, Final Cut Express substitutes a render file for the segment during playback. Render status bars above the ruler in the Timeline indicate which sections can play back in real time and which segments require rendering.  To render just click on the sequence menu and select render selection then click both.
